Recorded interview at CTNexpo
Last year I gave a presentation at the CTNexpo in Burbank, CA. This very popular annual animation conference hosted by Tina Price is packed with the biggest names in the field who hold workshops and presentations for fans and others interested in the animation field. Since the theme was “One of a Kind”, I was invited to talk about my transition from animation to editorial cartooning. Here’s a link to a recorded studio interview CTN did while I was in town. I’ll post the link to the actual presentation soon.

Discussing free speech and Charlie Hebdo 1 year later
My excellent colleague Signe Wilkinson and I were on C-Span this weekend talking about Charlie Hebdo, free speech, and a few other things…
2015 cartoons Year in Review
A collection of animated and still editorial cartoons over at my blog at the Washington Post.
Atena Farghadani
Amnesty International reports that the activist and artist Atena Farghadani has been given a “virginity test” after being observed shaking hands with her male attorney. Read my piece at the Washington Post about this latest outrageous action by the Iranian government.

Hillary to announce her 2016 presidential run
The Guardian reports:
“The former secretary of state is scheduled to declare her second run for president on Twitter at noon eastern time on Sunday, the source told the Guardian, followed by a video and email announcement, then a series of conference calls mapping out a blitzkrieg tour beginning in Iowa and looking ahead to more early primary states.”
Looking back at the GW Bush presidency
I just returned from participating on a cartoonists panel looking back at the George W Bush presidency at Hofstra University in Long Island, NY. Our moderator was Roslyn Mazer, a great supporter of cartoonists’ free speech rights who represented the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists in an amicus brief for the famous Hustler v Falwell case in 1987. The other cartoonists on the panel were Mike Peters from the Dayton Daily News, Steve Breen from the San Diego Times Union-Tribune, and Mike Luckovich from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. It’s always fun to get together with my colleagues and this particular group had me laughing most of the time. Especially Mike Peters. The evening before our panel Roslyn herded us to a local Italian restaurant (think The Sopranos) and watching Mike interact with our waiter was priceless.
The next day while we waited in the hospitality room before our panel I mentioned to Mike that the former NSA and CIA director Michael Hayden was sitting over at the next table. Without missing a beat Mike rushed over to his table, introduced himself, and proceeded to ask the creator of the NSA warrantless surveillance program to “just forget” hearing that obscene phone call he had with his wife.
A sketch from another panel at the Hofstra presidential conference, “The Constitution, Executive Power and National Security Post-9/11. If you put everything Michael Hayden said during the discussion into one sentence it would be: The Obama administration is doing the same bad stuff we did.
